HONDA CBR1000RRA ABS (2013-2014) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2014, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer released the Honda CBR1000RRA ABS, one of the most sportier bikes ever manufactured by Honda at the time, which like the 2014 base model, received the same modifications, such as a new rider position, a new windscreen, and more power and torque.

For the 2014 ABS model, the engineers focused on the cylinder head, intake, and exhaust ports, and polished the combustion chamber for improved efficiency. The engine was also remapped to match the revised cylinder head and delivered precise fueling and accessible power, especially at low rpm and low speeds.

The model featured a diamond-shaped aluminum twin-spar frame that hoasted the suspension system composed of a 43 mm adjustable inverted Showa Big Piston fork on the front and an adjustable Unit Pro-Link balance-free shock absorber on the rear with a long gull-wing swingarm that delivered excellent traction and rider feedback.

Also, the ABS version rolled on a set of 12-spoke cast aluminum wheels that improved handling performance and were fitted with two 320 mm discs with four-piston calipers on the front and a 220 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear that delivered strong braking performance.

In the muscle department, the 2014 Honda CBR1000RRA ABS was powered by a 998cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled that featured a Dual Stage Fuel Injection (DSFI) system that helped deliver an output power of 178 hp with maximum strength at 12,250 rpm and 114 Nm (84 lb-ft) of torque available at 10,500 rpm.
